Another solution would be to create a temp dir: DIR=$(mktemp -d tmp.XXXXXX) TMPLLVM="$DIR/tmp.llvm" TMPFILE="$DIR/tmp.o" The advantage would be to have a single call to mktemp and the .{llvm,o} at the end of the files but it would need a rmdir at the end. I don't have a strong opinion about it. [More annoying to me is the case of timeout(1) which is used in a few testcases. The busybox version requires that the timeout is given by '-t ...' and don't have the '-k' option ]. -- Luc -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-sparse" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
